A depraved Long Island teen who torched his pet parakeet on a drunken New Year’s Eve dare – and later boasted about it to pals was sentenced to community service yesterday.

Timothy Guider, 18, could have faced 60 days’ jail time but prosecutor Nancy Clifford asked the judge for a softer sentence of 280 hours of community service because it was an isolated incident, “spawned from too much drinking and male bravado.”

Guider pleaded guilty in May to one count of aggravated cruelty to animals, a felony charge. The student admitted to dousing his family’s pet bird with hair spray and setting it on fire during a boozy New Year’s Party at his home while his parents were away.

Friends at the party took photos of the deranged act and posted them on the Internet, cops said.

Later that evening Guider showed off the bird’s burned corpse at another holiday party, cops said.

At yesterday’s sentencing Guider told the court, “I regret this more than anything I’ve ever done in my life.” He was also sentenced to five years’ probation.
